congrats indeed .... I can only wish CCH rifles had of been available when we purchased our BBS 357 & 44 .... Rose Distribution 158 gr Zero bullets are reasonably priced and our Henry likes them ===> http://www.rozedist.com/mm5/merchant.mv ... de=ZBJ-38S .... be sure to add your new Henry to our community's total

Wow...Bud's bumped the price up 50 bucks several hours after I purchased it! Still got it for 744.00.

Yeah, Bud's will do that often enough. When I bought my semi auto 12ga[Moss. 930] I got it for $489.00. An hour later, it was back to $638.00! :o Gotta play their game and keep an eye on prices. BTW, give those MB 180's a try; think you'll like 'em.

They say they base their prices on suppliers inventory and it can change within hours.
I'm getting ready to place a order with MB for those 180's and some 158's. Did you shoot the coated 180's?

Yes. They are very accurate with 11.5gr 2400 from my Henry. Those will be my standard bullet for the .357. And I still have lots of 158's to shoot up also.

Might take note Forty. Randy and I ordered the Pugnose 180 coated. But Tom is using the other 180gr. Im not sure there is much difference in how they shoot as I had great luck with the Pugnose with that same 2400 load.

Correct. The one's I ordered are : .357 Striker-Hi-Tek[#HT-358180M]. Thinking they shoot the same.

Should be no problem,
as I have used that load with 3 different 180 gr boolits, and had near the same results with all 3.
Two were PC"d and one was a lubed bullet. It's a good load.
Three different Henry rifles and my long barrel Rossi.
